Inspired by the tree from the set design of our Das Rheingold production, artist Amanda Coleman began by researching the opera and photos of the set. She chose a twig for the design which looked like a miniature tree with a gnarly, textured look and many offshoots. The 100-year-old apple tree in her garden provided the perfect bark with character and texture. Sections of a branch where sent to a company to make a mould so she could cast them into precious metal. Once she had the branches in silver she selected the most pleasing parts, they were resized and soldered a brooch fitting, thus completing the magical alchemy of tree to jewellery.
